big oops, one of the cameras was set to 16:9 in a 3 camera shoot and it needs to be 4:3. I have not captured the tape yet, I thought I would see if the forum can help before I proceed. The final destination for the production is TV brodacast.

How can I fix this problem.

Capture as per normal.
Drop it into 4:3 project and use event pan/crop > Match Output Aspect.

You will loose horizontal resolution but no way to avoid this I'm afaid unless you were shooting HD.

You can move the crop around horizontaly if the frameing was off.
